Doesn't This Food Look Amazing?!

So I'm back on my paleo kick for the month of May.  I'm only 6 days in but so far it's going really well!  Paleo is essentially eating only animal protein, veggies, healthy fats and some fruits and nuts.  No bread, dairy, rice, refined sugar, etc etc.  The first thing people usually ask when I tell them about eating paleo is some form of 'what do you actually eat?!' The Kitchn had a great post today - A Peek Into the Paleo Diet: Dinner with Philip & Lenora.  Doesn't the food look amazing?! This is the type of stuff you get to enjoy when you eat paleo. Yum!!

Egg Cups

Finally got around to making those egg cups from a couple weeks back.  So incredibly easy!  I didn't use a recipe - just greased up a muffin tin, cut some turkey deli meat slices in half and laid them in the bottom of the cups.  Added one egg in each tin and sprinkled some black pepper, garlic and dried basil on the top.  I baked them for about a half an hour on 350 degrees.   Maybe next time I'll add some tomatoes, pesto or some other fun ingredient.  Enjoy!

Penzey's!

I went on a little field trip yesterday to Penzeys Spices in downtown Seattle.  If you have 20 minutes to kill I highly recommend it! I smelled just about every single spice and extract in the store, it was a little bit of a sensory overload.  I originally went in looking for a southwest/taco/fajita seasoning without salt (I need to get ready for Cinco de Mayo!) but wasn't very successful. They did have a lot of delicious smelling curry blends - I picked up the Maharajah Style Curry Powder. I hope it tastes as good as it smells!


Bought some garlic powder too!
